Adw.launcher = 2.2 look and feel from froyo - Droid Incredible Themes and Apps

Imho the new adw.launcher is the best home replacement! It's like launcher pro but it's nicer and more options. I recommend to all or at least give it a try and please tell what you think...

+1
I was waiting and waiting for this to finally come packaged in a method not requiring root. It's super sleek and has a ton of options. I love it.

thanks I was just looking for a new home replacement too

I definitely love the insane amount of options but I dunno, just didnt do it for me. Im gonna have to give this one to LauncherPro.

where can I find it at? is it called Adw.launcher?

Newb question I know...
but i scanned the bar code with Google Goggles and it only told me what it was... is there an app that will push me right to the market when I scan these types of barcodes?

Wow, its a nice launcher...I do wish for an option to save settings to sd card.

Installed once, and it was nice. I tried reinstalling it and I can't get it to come up. How do you start it initially? Last time I just hit the home button and it gave me the option...

Am I the only person that has noticed a somewhat annoying amount if lag with this launcher?
While I can say it's a nice looking launcher, I just can't say that I would use it in a day to day basis.

Are you using LWP's. That might be your problem.This is fast and smooth for me. If you have them take them off and see if that's your problem.

I'm aware of this, but since this project is open source perhaps it will be the first? Open source is better than proprietary any day!

senseui and it's widgets aren't open source though, so no dice. the closest we get is beautiful widget

I'm not sure this install includes the apps, like Allshare. After reading and then searching,i didn't see any references to it. It looks like its just the shell. Can anyone confirm? I would hate to add any more bloatware if I don't have to. I only want Allshare.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Correct its basically just the launcher shell
Its the fully working launcher, if your saying it does not have widgets your correct but no launcher comes with widgets. I know the guy its working on getting the widgets working as well.
I like rosie and the widgets the best my self, but the launcher works well but way to much like a iphone for me.
I can't install any of these without getting an application not installed warning.
Is there a work around?
confirmed... the launcher works fine on the evo. kinda plain with just the message and app icon on the bottom but the app drawer is nice. time to jazzy up the home screens a bit
Im with u....keeps giving me the same errors. do the phone have to be rooted or something

Any way to add more than just the message and app icon?
yea i really need a link to phone if im going to use it at all. exited for the widgets though.
note for anyone switching between this and other launchers, make sure you close this one when switching back if you dont reboot your phone, it will drain resources and battery.
Yeah its easy to add more icons to the bottom as seen in these pics, just while app draw is open hit menu/edit and drag the icons down and also you can re-order the apps as well.

so far it is nice.
i can hide the apps that i do not like (like moxier,and other)
so far i like it.
Lock screen is really nice. Thanks for the INfo (OP)

Wonder what damage it will do to the battery though!
So they caused the delay for 2.1 release. Probably they put hours in making this one and thought that it will all be wasted/
Now we all testing the battery.
the japanese has always something special and they keep proving this for us

Besides the animated wallpaper I don't see any other reason to choose this over ADW. Does anyone know if it's possible to use the wallpaper without having to run this launcher? In other words, can I use the live wallpaper with ADW?
Really really nice.
I thought live wallpaper is only supported by 2.1 and not by 1.6 ?
Anyway the "one and only" big reason why I´m waiting for 2.1 is the change of stupid lock screen on 1.6. Doesn´t work sufficient enough for me. I tried some lock-apps too, but no app was "much better" than the original one. On every call I have to hope I can unlock the screen. But this one in this pack works perfekt. Thanks for sharing.
Only good point is live screen..ADW is far better..

can somebody mod this to get only the lockscreen?

Yup, I got that too.
When I'm receiving a call it reverts back to the old lock screen, and when I'm done with the call I'll have to first unlock the default screen, and after that the AmbientTime one. Is there any way to force the AmbientTime lock screen to be used when receiving calls? If not, I guess I'll have to stick with ADW.
In the first post the wallpaper is very colorful but mine is simple! why?

If you have adb working try taking a screen capture from the ddms.bat file in the SDK tools folder!
you can install droid explorer and take screenshots from your pc. plus do alot of other things.
it will even install the sdk for you.

Been playing around with the phone all day, and this is what I came up with!
Nice! What mod (I don't know the correct phrase for anything, lol) is that where it shows all those widgets like tiles on the screen? I really like that.

It's a combination of two really awesome apps I discovered. One is called Desktop Visualiser, and the other is called SiMi Folders. Both are really impressive. Having all of the tiles (which are actually widgets) does use a lot of ram, but this phone easily handles it.

I've been trying the betas for quite a while and agree its the best one around. As long as you turn off predictive text, it doesnt lag at all. It's only getting better with updates. Will purchase it too if it ever comes out.
I purchased v3 not so long ago (but before the beta came out).. am I gonna get stiffed and have to buy v4 all over again when that eventually launches? I know its only a few quid but it'll be a pain if I do..

The cursor keys work on ssh terminal programs like connectbot, but the tab key does not.
it's a beta, let them know and hopefully it's something that can be fixed before the final release.

Launcher Pro on Droid Charge

I have a Thunderbolt and I am considering switching to a Charge however I hate Touchwiz with a damn passion. I mean, it's the most god aweful thing I've ever seen. To that end I went to the Verizon store to play with a Charge and I installed Launcher Pro to test it out. I uninstalled it before I left but I thought someone on the fence may care to see it.
See video and pictures below.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZYfl2mmSxA
Yeah Launcher Pro works really well. I go for a very simple, clean setup with only 1 homescreen, and put my most used apps on the 3 docks, and each dock icon also has a swipe shortcut, so that's 30 quick access apps without the visual clutter.
